Fun episode, too bad we have to wait three weeks for the next new one.

Kinda surprised Cuddy would commit perjury and other felonies to save House, but I'm glad that wrapped that storyline up. House apologizing was so..."unfamiliar" it was cool to see. I also liked the way it ended--w/both House & the copper (who I thought did a superb acting job) realizing they may have made some rather significant mistakes.

And agreed it's very lame to have to wait another 3 weeks...

I'm not sure I liked how the court case got thrown out, but it's over, finally.

I did like how House totally shocked Wilson with "the reveal" of his rehab stay.

I can't believe how homely they made Meagan Good look.

I want a hug from Cameron.

I was pretty annoyed at the end (pretty convenient and anti-climactic), until House revealed that he was still addicted. That was pretty cool.

Um, I'm still a little confused by the advantage of the electroshock. Isn't there a risk that, even without his memory, he'd just fall in love with her again? Or, for that matter, anyone else unavailable?

3 weeks? Stupid. Glad it is over, and House is unchanged.

Broken Heart Syndrome less than a week after Scrubs had the same thing while spoofing House. Ha! Figures.

Thank goodness that storyline is finally over. I'm pretty sure that intent would still be illegal, but whatever it takes to be done with the storyline is fine with me.

I kind of disagree. I think the whole process has humbled House, even though still a addict, I think he is changing in some ways.

Also think he finally got the picture of just how good of friends the people around him are. Could be wrong about that, though.

Entertaining episode.

Ditto on the glad it's over.
Ditto on the reset button
Ditto on the three week wait.

Yeah, I got nothing new.

Just Heard that Cameron and Chase got engaged in real life, that should make for a fun set dynamic...

It's good to see that House still has not changed

Isn't that a little different than post partem depression?

I was bummed about the 3 weeks too but then realized that that will also push the new episodes into sweeps. That was episode 11 for this season which basically puts us at the half-way mark for the season. They're going to have to pad with a lot of repeats to finish the season in May.

They're talking about JD's blonde female patient (Danielle Weeks).

Even more reason to HATE American Idol, IMO, anyone who gives that show such high ratings has no clue what good TV is, but that's a rant for another day, because I think AI is the only reason we have to wait another 3 weeks for a new one.

I certainly didn't expect House to have bribed someone into giving him vicodin, and I think maybe he realized some things, but may not have changed... maybe with the way he interacts with his team or Cuddy or Wilson, but overall hasn't changed.

Disappointed with the way the case wrapped up so easily... it seemed like it needed at least another scene, and glad to see Morse go.

I hope now that that storyline is over, they stick more the storylines and structure of the first season, the best by far IMO.

On a side note, you have American Idol to thank for House still being around.

If it wasn't for the lead-in ratings boost that show provided, House probably would have been canned at or before the end of season 1. And Season 2 was my favorite .

Yeah, I liked season 2 the best, but they have all been great. The two episodes of Forman getting sick were incredible.

On a side note, American Idol can kiss my ass.

Yeah, I'm pretty sick of AI, but it has lead to a few good things.

Even if they were more side effects than anything.
